Introduction
Malaria and Typhoid fever are significant diseases in many parts of the world, especially in the tropics and fever is a common sign. Prominent markers for early diagnosis and better comprehension of this pathological association and immunity are vital to reduce mortality, drug resistance and for clinical purposes. We sought to explore the profile of severity, oxidative stress, and inflammatory markers during malaria and typhoid fever co-infection.
Methods
From a cross-sectional study, 81 malaria and/or typhoid fever-positive patients from 288 fever patients were selected. Malaria was diagnosed using a Rapid diagnostic test and microscopy while typhoid fever was diagnosed using a Rapid typhoid test and Widal. Severity, stress level and inflammatory responses were evaluated by hematological analysis using full blood count, erythropoietin, cortisol, IL-10, IL-4 and IFN-γ through ELISA, superoxide dismutase and Catalase activities by spectrophotometer. Data were analyzed using SPPS 26 and PRISM 9 software.
Results
Co-infected patients present significant alterations of red blood cell lines such as thrombocytopenia and anemia. We founded also a significant increase of stress marker cortisol, IFN-γ and IFN-γ/IL-10 ratio compared to other groups, a decrease in anti-oxidant activities and an alteration of erythropoietin production. The levels of IL-10 and IL-4 were higher during mono-infections.
Conclusion
Co-infected subjects show changes in hematological parameters. The presence of malaria and typhoid fever results in a significant increase in stress, alterations in erythropoietin production, anti-oxidants and TH1- cytokine dominance. These findings allow for better management by the clinicians of these infections in the tropics.
期刊介绍:
Journal of the National Medical Association, the official journal of the National Medical Association, is a peer-reviewed publication whose purpose is to address medical care disparities of persons of African descent.
The Journal of the National Medical Association is focused on specialized clinical research activities related to the health problems of African Americans and other minority groups. Special emphasis is placed on the application of medical science to improve the healthcare of underserved populations both in the United States and abroad. The Journal has the following objectives: (1) to expand the base of original peer-reviewed literature and the quality of that research on the topic of minority health; (2) to provide greater dissemination of this research; (3) to offer appropriate and timely recognition of the significant contributions of physicians who serve these populations; and (4) to promote engagement by member and non-member physicians in the overall goals and objectives of the National Medical Association.
